This is the first ever general history of nineteenth-century English rural workers. Reay provides a fresh perspective on England’s rural past, reintroducing those often excluded from more traditional historical approaches, and stressing the diversity of working communities and the dynamism of rural life. Reay challenges stereotypes of rural England, arguing that the extent of localization is so compelling that it forces a rethinking of a unitary 'rural England.'
